Yah they are THAT cool, that they deserve to be posted simultaneously on two messageboards.

Don't pretend you don't love them, u are just jealous of my mad scouring-the-internet-for-teaware skillz ;)

You want to make yourself really nuts? Go to http://www.trocadero.com and search there on "natsume" and "chaire". (Which, come to think of it, may have been how Joel found these to start with :wink: )

Or you can look up the kanji for these terms and start searching Yahoo Japan. But I must warn you: that way lies madness!!!! :twisted:

P.S. Of your examples, Joel, I like the second natsume the best. The pampas grass is so gorgeous.

If I had to choose one, since I am partial to bonsai and dabble in the art, I would choose the 3rd.

Chamekke, the 2nd one is the most beautiful. :D

If I had to choose one, I would probably go insane because I want them all ;)

The 4th and the 7th are each listed at $1200, if that is any indication of value. And these are relatively modern pieces, imagine how much antiques go for!

I do love the glaze on the 7th Chaire. If I really had to choose one of those Natsume... maybe flip a coin between the 1st, 3rd, and 4th.

And yes Chamekke, some of those are from dealers who list through Trocadero.
